* This work marks a considerable breakthrough in books on jade.... It should render a lot of works obsolete and it is hard to imagine how it will, in turn, be replaced. Antiques Trade Gazette * The illustrations, all in faithful and subtle colour, alone make the book worth the price. It is a triumph of English publishing. Collectors Guide * For anyone interested in jade this must prove to be the book to have in your library with its wealth of informative photographs and scholarly articles. Art Quarterly * This fine new book is far the biggest and far the best book on jade so far.... It will be necessary reading for any serious jewel lover, and that means pretty well everyone.
